"One of the better Ice Cream places around!! They aren't that cheap but also not too expensive. Its located right near the falls and a bunch of trails and walking paths. The staff is very nice and helpful with answering questions. It's always a nice time when we stop here!"

"You have to try this place if you like ice cream, especially if you enjoy a good old-fashioned malt. This place is AMAZING! I found out about this place a few weeks ago and have been there several times already. The only issue I have had is trying to find a good, legible menu to look at prior to going (and if you have ever been there, you understand. The line can get quite long, but worth the wait.) So, I am posting with 2 pictures of the entire menu on the drive-thru wall. I hope this helps anyone looking to find their flavor choice before getting in line. Good luck and happy eating! CASCADES Ice Cream ROCKS!!!"

"Fantastic ice cream place with good prices and good variety! Situated next to parking as well as a kid's playground for the kids, it is a perfect place to take the family for a treat. Located next to The Cascades, the area around the ice cream place offers beautiful views and walking paths as you eat your food too, offering a little of everything for those who just want to get out of the house. Just want some ice cream to go? They also have a drive-thru so you can pick up what you want and scoot. As a first time customer who doesn't get ice cream often I'll definitely be going again."
